Dear Qiang Yu,

Thank you for your patch. Reading the commit message summary, I have no idea what “check vm ready by evicting” means. Can you please rephrase it?

Workstation application ANSA/META get this error dmesg:

What version, and how can this be reproduced exactly? Just by starting the application?

[drm:amdgpu_gem_va_ioctl [amdgpu]] *ERROR* Couldn't update BO_VA (-16)

This is caused by:
1. create a 256MB buffer in invisible VRAM
2. CPU map the buffer and access it causes vm_fault and try to move
    it to visible VRAM
3. force visible VRAM space and traverse all VRAM bos to check if
    evicting this bo is valuable
4. when checking a VM bo (in invisible VRAM), amdgpu_vm_evictable()
    will set amdgpu_vm->evicting, but latter due to not in visible
    VRAM, won't really evict it so not add it to amdgpu_vm->evicted
5. before next CS to clear the amdgpu_vm->evicting, user VM ops
    ioctl will pass amdgpu_vm_ready() (check amdgpu_vm->evicted)
    but fail in amdgpu_vm_bo_update_mapping() (check
    amdgpu_vm->evicting) and get this error log

This error won't affect functionality as next CS will finish the
waiting VM ops. But we'd better clear the error log by check the

s/check/checking/

evicting flag which really stop VM ops latter.

stop*s*?

Can you please elaborate. Christian’s and your discussions was quite long, so adding a summary, why this approach works and what possible regressions there are going to be might be warranted.


Kind regards,

Paul
